WILLIAM Gr. BATSON, OF LQS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA.

SANITARY-CUSPIDOR BRACKET.

Application filed August 28, 1919.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, VVILLIAM G. BATsoN, a citizen of the United States, residing at Los Angeles, in the county of Los Angeles and State of California, have invented new and useful Improvements in Sanitary-Cuspidor Brackets, of which the following is a specification.

My object is to make a sanitary cuspidor bracket, and my invention consists of the novel features herein shown, described and claimed.

Figure 1 is a perspective showing a sanitary cuspidor bracket embodying the principles of my invention in use.

Fig. 2 is an enlarged of the sanitary cuspidor bracket.

Fig. 3 is a horizontal section on the line 33 of Fig. 1 and looking downwardly.

The sanitary cuspidor bracket 1 is adapted to be attached to a leg 2 of an ofiice desk so that the cuspidor 3 may be mounted in the bracket and swung under the desk out of use and so that by manipulating the bracket the cuspidor may be moved out from under the desk into use.

The details of the bracket 1 are as follows:

The vertical bearing 4 is formed integral with the attaching plate 5 and the attaching plate 5 is adapted to fit against the side of the leg 2. The ears 6 and 7 extend from the ends of the plate 5 and have holes 8 and 9 for the insertion of screws or nails.

The plate 5 is placed in position at the proper height relative to the floor and nails or screws are inserted through the holes 8 and 9 to secure the bearing 4 rigidly in place.

The pintle 10 is inserted downwardly loosely and rotatably in the bearing 4. The arm 11 extends from the upper end of the pintle 10. The arm 12 extends downwardly from the outer end of the arm 11. The arm 13 extends outwardly horizontally Specification of Letters Patent.

from the lower end of the arm 12. The horizontal ring flange 1 1 is fixed upon the arm 13 and a vertical ring flange 15 extends upwardly from the outer edge of the ring 14. Braces l6 and 17 are secured at their ends to the ring flange 14 and are parallel with the arm 13. Braces 18 and 19 connect the intermediate portion of the arm 12 to the ring flanges 14 and 15 at points half wav between the ends of the arm 13. g

The cuspidor 3 fits upon the flange 1 1 within the flange 15. An operating arm 20 extends upwardly from the intermediate portion of the arm 11 and is curved laterally and extends horizontally to a point in side of the leg 2, and a button 21 is formed upon the free end of the arm 20, so that by pressing against the button 21 from the front the euspidor 3 will be moved outwardly from under the desk, and so that b pulling upon the button 21 from the front the cuspidor 3 will be moved backwardly under the desk.

Preferably the bracket is clear of the floor, but it may rest upon the floor.

Various changes may be made without departing from the spirit of my invention as claimed.

I claim:

A sanitary cuspidor bracket comprising a vertical bearing means for securing the bearing to the leg of a desk, a pintle inserted downwardly intov the bearing, an arm extending outwardly and downwardly from the upper end of the pintle, a cuspidor carrier fixed to the outer end of the arm and an operating arm extending outwardly and backwardly from the first mentioned arm and backwardly beyond the hearing so that it will project beyond the leg of the desk on the opposite side from the bearing.

In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification.

WILLIAM G. BATSON.
